high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 443187

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- Symfony is a PHP framework for web and console applications and a set of reusable PHP components. Prior to
5.4.53, 6.4.41, 7.4.13, and 8.0.13, DefaultAuthenticationFailureHandler honored the request-supplied
_failure_path parameter when failure_forward: true was enabled, allowing an unauthenticated failing login
request to dispatch a subrequest to access_control-protected GET routes that skipped firewall listeners.
This issue is fixed in versions 5.4.53, 6.4.41, 7.4.13, and 8.0.13. (CVE-2026-48489)

Solution

Update the symfony/security-http library and its related packages to version 5.4.53 or later.
